Hello mr.moniscale!i call myself an experienced tankmoddeller.but I have highest respect to the shipbuilders.with best regards and sticky greetings from Brandenburg germany.faithfully yours.your fellow modellmate.christian
That's a great build of a legendary cruiser. Thanks for posting, as a fellow 1:350 builder I enjoyed watching this, and picking up one or two tips on the way.
I just got this kit today and it looks great. I’ll be doing an out of the box build of it so it won’t look as good as yours but I hope that I can achieve a good result.
Looking forward to tour next ship model buildingl ! This is more than Modeling it s art . Weathering is a delicate thing and you do it fantastically ! Wow ! You are in my top 4 ship modelers.
It's sad because this is the only German capital ship that survived the war. Rather than thinking ahead and saving it for the sake of history, we literally decided to just nuke it instead. It would have been so cool in an alternate history we could visit the Prinz Eugen to this day.
Prince Eugen's sunk place is very shallow. You can go see her now too. Just be prepared with some diving equipment and a dive guide. Also, sometimes I was thinking. Did we really won World War II. Look at so much suffering in Eastern Europe, Asia, North Africa after the war...These sufferings have not ended until today. These sufferings spread throughout the world as people indulged in the paralysis brought about by the so-called victory.
@@scootergeorge9576 First of all, please don't question in the tone of a bureaucrat in the Totalitarian Communist State. Secondly, the full name of the Nazi you are referring to is the National Socialist German Workers' Party. It is also the branch of socialism that is still poisoning the world today. Both the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany are evil. Of course the Soviet Union is more evil.
@@MonimixModel Not intending to beat a dead horse ... but ... okay ... better, in spite of the sad negatives you mention, than the free world had LOST the war. The sadnesses you mention pale, utterly, in face of that alternative future!!
@@olgreywolf9688 The Soviet Union was not the free world. And the Cold War was a continuation of World War II. Technically speaking, World War II is not even over now. For example, the current Ukrainian Patriotic War and the possible future war in the Taiwan Strait. And the wars against freedom waged by extremist factions in various Western countries.
Excellent work. Who made the kit? What company and scale, and what year and how much $ that is an awesome build! Who is the composer it sure is very beautiful and fitting. German ships were quite elegant.
An amazing build, thank you for sharing! May I ask, where did you find that wood stand and pedestal? I would like to do the same because you did such a wonderful job with it and it is inspiring :)
Thank you. The wood part comes from my art school. The pedestal which i used are from eBay: www.ebay.fr/itm/1-350-Model-Ship-Display-Pedestals-20-13-mm-Brass-SMALL/254389603306 You can also search for "slip through necks" on sites like libertybrass.com or grandbrass.com. They don't include screws and washers but these can be sourced very easily (an M8 screw will do fine) or even custom built and delivered to your door on sites like accu.co.uk.
Awesome and amazing build sir. This belongs in a museum. Two questions if I may, how long did it take to complete the build? And is that an American flag of the main mast? Again a masterpiece, well done.👍👍
I sincerely thank you for being able to enjoy my work. I have been making it for about 2 months. About 4 hours per day. Some parts were rushed to get the video out on time. About the American flag. Because Prinz Eugen was handed over to the United States as war booty after the German surrender in 1945. Afterward, the ship operated very differently from the American warships. So much so that it was always necessary to use a large number of German sailors. That was why the US Navy decided to put her on Operation Crossroads. Which was the Bikini Island nuclear test. She remained unsinkable in the face of two nuclear bombs. Despite this outcome, the US Navy still learned many valuable experiences from her designs.
@@MonimixModel that's very a very interesting fact about the ship, thank you, I learned something new today. After watching your video I had to subscribe. 👍👍
I do not recommend using the self adhesive on the decks. A lot of that adhesive fails over time leaving the deck to buckle. Best to apply a strong adhesive that will hold over time. Excellent model.
Amazing build and a beautiful looking ship. I really enjoyed watching the weathering and everything else that brought it to life. I was wondering if you remember the greys that you used for the three tone painting on the superstructure (the base coat to the highlight). I cant quite figure out which greys would be best for creating that depth. Love the ship!
I used infini model rigging. The flags are two Z flags. This allusion comes from the Z flags flown by the IJN Mikasa battleship in the Tsushima Sea Battle. It means that the rise or fall of the empire will be this battle. At the time I posted this video you know what it means. Sadly, the United States lost the battle.
After October 15, 1944, while returning to port after a mission, she collided with the light cruiser Leipzig due to poor visibility caused by dense fog.
@@kaisfullerton1348 Oh. I think you mean the bonding of the upper and lower hull. This I bonded using super glue. When they dry, then I sandpaper them layer by layer.
Salve, modello quasi perfetto, se non fosse per la bandiera americana che su quella nave della 2^ Guerra Mondiale, non credo nemmeno esistesse come bandiera di cortesia.
@@venetostato4822 1 Buy a few pieces of placage like this. www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B09BBGKDYY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 2 If you have a laser engraver, draw the appropriate pattern in illustrator and engrave it using a very shallow depth. 3 Cut and glue them to your model by using 3M double-sided adhesive.
The ship had a major boiler malfunction on its way to operation crossroads declared non repairable. One of the 8" guns was removed and for years was on display in Dahlgren Va. Along with some optics so she didn't arrive a complete example.

I was lucky enough to have a job out in kwa... My boss dove on this cruiser many time( a dive master) and i recovered a few items a placard from the officers head and a pair of binoculars from the bridge... I have some war relics. I experienced some difficulty in diving myself... Don't like more than 30 feet. But my boss was the chief pilot( and a gunney sgt?) Do we got along great!! Yea miss that place; great job.nice that i have a piece of history! )
悲しいことに、1946年にビキニ環礁に連行され、核爆発の標的船として使用されるまで、この船は米軍には長く使われていませんでした。 同行していた注目すべき軍艦は、「サラトガ」と「長門」である。 Sadly, the ship was not used by the U.S. Navy for a long time before it was taken to Bikini Atoll in 1946 and used as a target ship for nuclear explosions. Notable warships that accompanied were the Saratoga and the Nagato.

This ship was turned over to the U.S. Navy after she was taken by the Royal Navy from the Germans. The Navy then designated her as U.S.S. Prinz Eugen. Later she was used in atomic bomb testing in 1946. So this model is accurate.

Nice model you should have removed the 2 main gun barrels from A turret as they were removed prior to her being expended as a target
Beautiful model👍🏻
The dihedral on that Ar 196 needs a little fix though !!!
Nope?
New here, what exactly does "oil paint" mean? Is it oil-based paints or oil-colored paints? For the decks on the superstructure, that is
Amazing build and a beautiful looking ship. I really enjoyed watching the weathering and everything else that brought it to life.
I was wondering if you remember the greys that you used for the three tone painting on the superstructure (the base coat to the highlight). I cant quite figure out which greys would be best for creating that depth. Love the ship!
I decided which three colors to use by using photos of modern battleships.
What Base color did you decide to use ? Great Build .
Thank you. I used multiple colors mixed to get this result. But you can now simply use Tamiya LP-36 and LP-37 to get almost the same result.
A work par excelance ! complete with rigging ! !
Mega Good Work
Hello, can you tell me what kind of material you used for the cables / ropes to which the flag is attached?

Nice work. How did you apply the decking? The self adhesive backing? My Bismarck decking is lifting and bubbling.
Yes. If your wood deck doesn't have self-adhesive. I recommande you to use 3M 300LSE Extreme Solide Ruban.
very nice work mate, what did you use for the rigging?
I use Infini Model Lycra Rigging
What brand of up glue did you use for rigging?

Do you know when the extra armour was added around A turret ?

Hello, great model! Greetings condock24
Excellent work. But it looks like we got the wrong flag on the Eugen. The US flag at the time should only have 48 stars not 50.

What a sad end of a beautiful ship...used for Atomic Testing at Bikini Atoll. Then scuttled.
He survived two H-bomb tests. ;)
Is that why you put a US Flag on the Stern Halyard????
Exellent
not gonna lie, remove the aft mast, and the aircraft equipment and she'd be a good early guided missile cruiser, with early drone capabilities.
its a shame the US navy scuttled her after only a year in service
They had no engineers which understood the high pressure steam turbines
